We try to avoid surgery whenever possible. However, we have a state-of-the-art surgical suite, and do many routine surgical procedures every week, including:

  • Spays/Neuters
  • Declaws
  • Dentals

And specialized procedures such as:

  • Mass biopsies and removals
  • Bladder stone removal
  • Relieving urinary obstruction
  • Foreign body obstruction removal
  • Fracture repair with specialist

We take every precaution possible to decrease the risks of general anesthesia for your cat, including:

  • Recent physical examination
  • Preanesthetic blood panel and urinalysis
  • Safe inhalant gas anesthesia
  • IV catheter and fluids
  • Continuous monitoring of heart rate, blood pressure, oxygenation, and body temperature

Pain medications are given either by transdermal patch, injection, and/or through the IV. We take pain management very seriously, and want your cat to be comfortable before, during, and after any procedure.

 

Dentistries are performed every week by our licensed veterinary technicians and veterinarians. We also have the advantage of a digital dental radiograph machine that we utilize to reveal problems below the gumline, at the root level, that aren’t visible otherwise. This ensures a complete dental examination to rival the best human dentists around!
